Revealed: How much money Wales have made at Euro 2016
Monday, July 04, 2016 Source: Dailystar.co.ukStarsport can reveal the Red Dragons have landed £15.1m in prize money already by reaching the semi-finals, where they play Portugal in Lyon on Wednesday.
And if Coleman's men make it to the final and lose they will pick up £19.3m.
But if they produce one of the greatest shocks in football history by scooping the trophy at the Stade De France on Sunday, their bonanza will be £21.8m, just £840,000 less than the maximum they could have been paid by UEFA.
Coleman, who has masterminded the brilliant run for Wales, earns just £500,000 a year, a seventh of what ex-England boss Roy Hodgson was on.
England's dismal run of one run and two draws in the group before a shocking 2-1 exit to Iceland in the last 16 saw them earn £9.6m.
That is around four times what they paid to stay in the 97-room, five-star Auberge du Jeu de Paume hotel in Chantilly, which was booked out entirely at a cost of about £2.5m.
The Football Association of Wales are rewarding all their staff, not just the players, for the success in France.
A third of the prize-money will be divided among their 60 staff, meaning they have all ensured a bonus of £83,000 each already, which will rise to around £120,000 if they win the tournament.
UEFA set aside around £252m in prize-money for the 24 teams competing in Euro 2016.
That compares to the £164 distributed at Euro 2012 and £154m at Euro 2008, both which had 16 countries playing.
All 24 teams this years receive a participating fee of £6.7m, and during the group phases there were bonuses of £840,000 for a win and £420,000 for a draw.
Reaching the last 16 landed £1.26m with an extra £2.1m for making the semi-finals.
For the two teams who take the field for the final at the Stade de France in Paris on Sunday there will be a reward of £4.2m for the the runners-up, while the 2016 European champions will receive £6.7m.
Coleman - who has managed Fulham, Read Sociedad, Coventry and Larissa in Greece - signed a contract extension in May which ties him to Wales until after the 2018 Cup.
But his salary is dwarfed by what is paid in the Premier League and at the time of his new deal he said: "I'll go back to club management one day."
